No, they killed Malcolm because he left the Nation of Islam.

Reuben Francis, the aforementioned Malcolm X bodyguard who wounded Hayer, also wounded one William Harris, 51, who was struck in the abdomen, and one William Parker, 36, who was shot in the foot. (Neither of these wounded spectators was called as a witness in the slaying trial.) Francis was indicted for shooting Hayer, jumped $10,000 bail, disappeared, and then was rearrested on February 2, 1966, in a New York Assistant District Attorney's office. On February 15, 1966, a spokesman for the District Attorney's office told The Militant, a weekly socialist newspaper, that "Francis had been picked up newspaper, that "Francis had been picked up by the FBI" and was being held on $25,000 bail. On that same date "a spokesman for the FBI denied any knowledge of Francis," according to The Militant. Reuben never testified and his whereabouts is unknown.

...

On January 21, 1966, the trial began, and on February 23, 1966, Hayer testified on his own behalf. On February 28, Hayer confessed to the assassination of Malcolm X, testifying that the other 2 defendants had nothing to do with the murder. Hayer and his 3 accomplices, whom he did not name, had been hired to carry out the assassination. He refused to say how much money he had been offered. He said that the man who hired him was not a Muslim either.

please tell me you think the MLK Jr. assassination was also a Lone Gunman

Arrogance is a state in which we are convinced that we have the right to be above others. Justifiable self-regard, without comparing ourselves to others and feeling superior, is not the same thing. That is, at worst, vanity. Arrogance is unlawful in Islam. It is considered to be a disgraceful state.

The opposite of arrogance is to look at ourselves with the intention of truly knowing ourselves. Self-examination is a virtue, and one that is expected of a Muslim. Whether our self-regard is justifiable or not, whether truly in our hearts we believe that we are superior to others or not, if our conceit is exteriorized, manifested, communicated to others by mind or deed, it is a sin. The worst version of this sin occurs when no justification exists for the feeling of superiority we cherish. Allah Most High, one of whose attributes is the Proud One, is the only one with a right to that name.

The only occasion when the attitude of pride is not a sin is when it is manifested against an aggressive, arrogant person or against a tyrannical enemy, when we are waging battle in defense of our religion or country. In fact, to show pride toward an arrogant person is considered to be a good deed.

Jabir related that the Prophet said:

The only state of pride Allah permits is the one shown in battle or while performing a generous act. (Abu Dawud)

The meaning of pride while helping a person in need is belittling our own generosity while pretending that we could have done much better.

hMmMmyes, yes, cyclone mayne makes some good points itt. never considered that malcolm x mite suck... yep yep. ayuh.

im comin to austin for yah bwoy. until then find me in williamsburg

I'm not saying the dude sucked. I never said that. I just said that he had an overblown profile as a consequence of being very strongly pro-black (thus appealing to white people's need to have a scary black man), although he was not involved in politics directly until he left the NoI.

this strikes me as a very bizarre and wrong argument, but at the moment i don't care to go into why
